COMMENTS
A transform of 5^n under the matrix A103452.
FORMULA
G.f.: (1 - 2*x + 5*x^2)/((1-x)*(1-5*x)).
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} A103452(n, k)*5^k.
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} (2*0^(n-k) - 1)*0^(k*(n-k))*5^k.
a(n) = A024049(n), n > 0. - R. J. Mathar, Aug 30 2008
E.g.f.: 1 - exp(x) + exp(5*x). - G. C. Greubel, Jun 21 2021
